What is wrong
Volvo Car USA LLC (Volvo) is recalling certain 2017 XC90, S90, and V90 Cross Country vehicles. The bolts that secure the Inflatable Curtain (IC) air bags in place may break, possibly resulting in the IC air bag deploying improperly in the event of a crash. As, such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 226, "Ejection Mitigation."
What can happen
If the IC air bags do not deploy properly in the event of a crash, the vehicle occupants have an increased risk of injury.
The remedy
Volvo will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the bolts, as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin April 1, 2017. Owners may contact Volvo customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo's number for this recall is R89714.
Notes
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.

| R89714-2017-04-0 | 2019-12-02. Service bulletin. Volvo Car USA LLC and Volvo Car Canada LTD (Volvo) on behalf of Volvo Car Group has decided to launch Recall R89714 on certain model year 2017 XC90, S90, V90CC and V90 vehicles. Due to a manufacturing error in the surface treatment process, the bolts that were used to assemble the inflatable curtain (IC) airbag may not meet specifications. This could result in one or more of the bolts breaking within 48 hours of installation, which in the event of a crash warranting deployment of the IC airbag, could increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants. The correction action is for Volvo retailers to replace all of the inflatable curtain bolts. |

| PB87-R89707-2016 | 2019-11-18. Service bulletin. This is a Parts Bulletin: Condensation water, transferred through the air conditioning drain hose, may leak into the passenger compartment due to incorrect installation during vehicle assembly. If this condition should occur, it may result in moisture inside the passenger compartment, which could lead to air conditioning functionality issues. If the leakage has not been detected over a period of time, this condition could affect SRS systems (airbag), engine management systems etc. In such a case, the driver may experience various warning messages displayed in the Driver Information Module (DIM) identifying that a fault may be present and also providing guidance on how to proceed. Volvo therefore considers this a potential safety risk over time. |
